Chapter 311 Thoughts on Resigning
Hearing this, Gu Mingyue was speechless and said, "No matter how petty I am, I can't possibly trip him up in such an important matter. Besides, he was just annoying at the time, not hated, otherwise I would have driven him out of the village long ago. I didn't expect that he still remembered it when I almost forgot about it."
Gu Mingzhong pondered and said, "Is it possible that he is afraid that you will find Damao to scare him again?"
"This guy is really something. He doesn't show off when he should, and he shows off when he shouldn't. Forget it, I'll talk to him in person tomorrow. Let's not talk about him anymore. Brother, what do you think about the jewelry processing factory?"
Gu Mingwei was stunned for a moment and said, "It's still the same as before, just expand the scale and hire more people."
The household contract responsibility system should begin during the Chinese New Year, and the collective economy is about to come to an end.
Gu Mingyue felt that the reason why she, as the village party secretary, was so popular was that she had the right time, right place and right people. Of course, the most important thing was that she reaped the benefits of the times.
It was at this time that she could bluff everyone with her words, or frighten evil spirits with just a calligraphy from a high-ranking leader.
But the times are progressing, people are exposed to more things, and their minds become more complicated. By then, her prestige will probably be greatly reduced.
When I ran for village party secretary, it was just to gain the right to speak in the village and protect myself and those around me in the turbulent times.
To say that he is greedy for power, he is not really greedy. At present, Director Shen has been transferred back to Beijing, and President Zhang will be promoted soon. In the future, the management of each village will be stricter and the system will be gradually standardized.
When she thought about having to go to the town to attend meetings and listen to the leaders' speeches when she had nothing to do in the future, Gu Mingyue felt dizzy after sitting there for half an hour.
In the future, society will become more and more stable. She will no longer have to worry about being questioned for not having a regular source of income, and she will no longer have to guard against being exposed for her hedonism.
She can play openly, eat whatever she wants, wear whatever she wants, and no longer have to hide anything like before. This is the life she wants most. Now that she has finally got a chance to start over, she must live life to her heart's content.
In the past, it was the limitation of time, but now, all the concerns have disappeared, and we can retreat when we should!
So she said to Gu Mingwei, "Brother, when I went to Yangcheng, I heard some rumors that the higher-ups were discussing disbanding the big pot system and handing over collective land to individuals for contracting. This means the days of working together and sharing the profits together are over."
"Is this true?"
"Although it's still under discussion, it's already on the agenda. It was revealed by Director Shen when I was chatting on the phone. He also meant for us to be mentally prepared in advance."
Gu Mingyue could only push the blame onto the Shen family, after all, this was more convincing.
Gu Mingwei's expression became serious, and so did the others.
Li Xiuhe asked anxiously, "This can't be a mess again, right?"
"Second sister-in-law, you don't have to worry." Gu Mingyue explained to her, "In fact, it's because our village is strictly managed and has a good foundation. No one wants to take advantage of the ready-made food, and everyone has their own duties. Not to mention the faraway villages, just look at the nearby villages, how many people are there just to eat. If five out of ten people go to the fields, it's a lot. The rest are all just fooling around if they can, and pretending to be stupid if they can't. Those lazy people get the same food by relying on others' help, and then laugh at others' stupidity. Including some brigade cadres, they are also sneaky and corrupt. It can be seen that it is only a matter of time before they break up."
Liu Caixia sighed, "Oh, it's like that in my mother's family. People who work hard get tired and end up eating the same meals as those who don't work, but they get a little more rice. Many people quit their jobs. Even if the village chief comes out to reprimand them, no one listens. No one wants to work for nothing."
Gu Mingzhong asked uncertainly, "After all, the situation in our village is different. Do we have to change accordingly?"
Gu Mingwei saw that Gu Mingyue had something to say, so he immediately asked, "What do you think?"
"I was thinking that when we build the factory this time, we would like to let the villagers participate voluntarily. If they are willing to invest, they can get dividends in proportion to their investment. If they are not willing to pay, they can just work and not participate in the profit sharing."
Gu Mingwei hesitated and said, "If that happens, I'm sure the villagers will have objections."
Gu Mingyue said indifferently, "Brother, even if there is no such policy, there will be other problems. We might as well take this opportunity to make a thorough rectification. In the future, those who get paid will get dividends, and those who work hard will get wages, which is fair and reasonable. When the policy is announced, people who are used to farming can also contract individually. And second brother, if you want to continue making furniture, you can take a few apprentices. You don't have to share money with the village, and you can be responsible for your own profits and losses."
Gu Mingzhong was a little moved when he heard this. "Won't it be reported?"
"No." Gu Mingyue affirmed, "The chaos is over, and the era of free economy is about to come. I found that the outside world has changed so much, almost every day. With more and more foreign investment, social development will be faster and faster. I think our lives will definitely change dramatically. Brother, second brother, you must be mentally prepared. Especially brother, I know that you always have a sense of responsibility for the villagers, and I also know that most of the villagers are good, but people's hearts are ultimately changeable, especially when resources are unequal. Brother, think about it, in the past, everyone's work points mainly came from the order volume of the two workshops, but over the years, some people did more, some did less, and problems were inevitable. Often, many policy changes also reflect the current social situation to a large extent. It is precisely because of various hidden dangers that the country will come forward to solve them. Brother, you have more and more white hair in recent years, but the villagers are living happier and happier. You can't always be their helmsman..."
Gu Mingwei sighed, "I understand your concerns. It's not that I can't let it go, I'm just used to it and can't adapt to it for a while. But you're right, I can't take care of them forever. I'll have a meeting in a few days and tell everyone about the policy changes, and then we can talk about investment. Okay, if you have anything else to say, say it all together."
Gu Mingyue chuckled, "Brother knows me best. I don't want to think about this. The village is currently very stable. It doesn't matter whether I am there or not. I just want to resign as the village party secretary."
Gu Mingwei snorted, "I see you don't like going to meetings or worrying about those tedious things."
Liu Caixia advised, "Mingyue, you are doing well here, why don't you work? Just let your elder brother go to the meeting. If you don't have a job, what will you do in the future?"
"Sister-in-law, I can invest in a jewelry processing factory. I can get dividends while sitting at home. It's wonderful to think about it. Also, I'm not completely in charge. For example, I can help with the design of the factory and give suggestions and references. Don't worry, I won't starve."
Liu Caixia wanted to persuade him, but was interrupted by Gu Mingwei, "Don't worry, after all these years, don't you understand how right this girl's ideas are? Since she said it, she has made up her mind. It doesn't matter if she resigns. She has a personality that won't tolerate any humiliation. I'm afraid that she might make a big fuss at any time if she says something that doesn't please her."
Gu Mingyue touched his nose and said embarrassedly, "Brother, Guanglei is still here, please give me some face..."
